DO NOT force a DIMM into a socket to avoid damaging the DIMM The DDR SDRAM technology evolved from the mainstream PC66 PC100 PC133 memory known as Single Data Rate SDR SDRAM DDR memory however has the ability to perform two data operations in one clock cycle thus providing twice the throughput of SDR memory For example a 200MHz DDR DIMM will support a 100MHz memory bus and a 266MHz DDR DIMM will support a 133MHz memory bus DDR Data Transfer Rate DDR Base Frequency 266MHz Gen A 133MHz 200MHz mn 100MHz A DDR DIMM has the same physical dimensions as an SDR DIMM but it has a 184 pin footprint compared to the 168 pin of the SDR DIMM Also a DDR DIMM is single notched while an SDR DIMM is double notched Therefore a DDR DIMM is not backward compatible with SDR and should be installed only in a socket specially designed for DDR DIMMs User s Manual 2 9 2 4 2 Memory Configurations The motherboard supports system memory of up to 12GB in a two way interleaved configuration As a rule this configuration requires that you install identical DDR DIMMs exactly the same type and size in pairs for optimum performance For example if you installed a 512MB module into DDRA1 you must install the same type of 512MB module into DDRA2 The same rule applies to pairs DDRB1 DDRB2 and DDRC1 DDRC2 The only exception to the above rule allows you to install one DIMM into DDRA1 socket the socket closest to the ATX power connector Instal
